One more vote for books on Trakt!

I tried basically every alternative to Goodreads and if most of them provide serious improvements in the UX, they all have in common to have a shallow library, missing at least a third of my reading history.  
Which is Goodreads’ moat and the reason I keep using it while hating it…

Having Trakt’s quality for books would be such a joy!

It’s pretty easy to add books to storygraph! Either with the isbn importer or manually. (I always add them manually because I don’t trust importers)

And report tickets are handled super fast!

Maybe you should expand trakt to books. It will be a great add-on.

It would be interesting, I wonder if there’s a suitable database for books that could be used.

Trakt for books and songs/amazing would be Amazing. Imaging pressing the track tick button after each chapter and reading comments about the chapter you have just read. It would be amazing.

A place to collect songs, rate and comment would be great too
